Suh even kinda muttered something along the lines of "I don't need to be a beast in here." However, Martin did mention that Suh basically blew Martin off a few years prior at Suh's camp so there's some previous tension there.&nbsp; <br> &nbsp; <br> Additionally, I didn't like how in both of the first two episodes they focused so heavily on longshot NFL dreams Emilien and Butler. Emilien is a 205 lb linebacker from Toledo, no shot. Butler is 25 years old and has had more off the field issues than one can count added to the fact that he never really did anything on the field, no shot. They have guys that work out there that would be great to focus on, at least better than Vlad Emilien and Carson Butler.&nbsp; <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252068Fri, 18 Jul 2014 12:11:51 GMTRe:Barwis (Deuce Wayne) I'm going to stop reading the responses just to put this to an end. I think I've found the only forum of fans outside of Cleveland that like Lebron, though. I don't try to cover my hate for Lebron. (literally the only athlete I dislike with a passion) <br> <br> The thread high-jack must come to an end... <br> &nbsp; <br> One thing I'll say about American Muscle is - &nbsp;it's cool to see the ex UM players. I've only watched clips so far, but saw Butler, Brandon Graham, and of course Mike Martin.&nbsp; <br> <br> Martin's antics seemed really forced. Or at least I hope they were... being a UM and Titans fan, I've never thought he was a d-bag, but he came off as one to Suh.&nbsp; <br> <br> Which is kind of silly to act tough and superior in the weight-room when the guy is obviously a much better athlete on the field. &nbsp; <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252064Fri, 18 Jul 2014 10:12:13 GMTRe:Barwis (UMWolverine5) Deuce, last thing I will say: you are flat wrong about The Chosen One nickname. He got that tattoo AFTER being on the cover of sports illustrated article. Some of your hatred toward him may be well deserved, but stop being ridiculous on most of it. The post you had with some stats backing up a few of your beliefs- great! And people can argue that (as I have with you), but making stuff up based on your hatred towards him makes you sound like a child. Take your emotion out of it, and have a rational conversation (like your previous post with some numbers)! <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252057Fri, 18 Jul 2014 08:29:35 GMTRe:Barwis (UMWolverine5) Caught up on the second episode last night. Was fun to see Martin and Suh go at it. Suh seems like a weird guy but man he is a monster! How people keep giving Carson Butler chances is beyond me. Looking forward to next Wednesday. <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252054Fri, 18 Jul 2014 08:23:13 GMTRe:Barwis (TK23Blue) <blockquote class="quote"><i>WolvyMike</i><br> <br> <br> &nbsp; <br> <br> There's a point you reach where you realize it's just a waste of time and energy.&nbsp; This thread has reached it. <br> <br> <br> <br> </blockquote> <br> &nbsp; <br> Ha ha. &nbsp;This thread reached that point 4 pages ago. &nbsp;Apparently Barwis, James and Kobe don't go together very well. <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252052Fri, 18 Jul 2014 08:12:57 GMTRe:Barwis (WolvyMike) &nbsp; <br> &nbsp; <br> There's a point you reach where you realize it's just a waste of time and energy.&nbsp; This thread has reached it. <br> &nbsp; <br> &nbsp; <br> &nbsp; <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252050Fri, 18 Jul 2014 07:27:32 GMTRe:Barwis (Deuce Wayne) <blockquote class="quote"><i>WolvyMike</i><br> <br> <br> LeBron makes every player on the court around him better.&nbsp; He's hardly a ME player.&nbsp; Hell, up until he won his two rings with Miami, every pundit out there said he wasn't selfish enough.&nbsp; Hardly a ME player on the court. <br> <br> <br> and after what, 11 seasons in the NBA, 8 of them as arguable the best player in the league, he wanted to be the highest paid player on his own team for the FIRST time.&nbsp; <br> <br> <br> Both are polarizing players, but LeBron is definitely the lesser of two Douches........LOL <br> <br> </blockquote> <br> Again, there's a reason the most hated athlete is Lebron James and Kobe doesn't make the list. <br> &nbsp; <br> And notice how he made all the Cavs' acquisitions worse... yet he makes players better?

I truly believe he'll win at least 1 more ring and maybe more with Cleveland. I don't know that they're that far off from being in the finals every year like Miami was. They have some work to do to get there but we will see.&nbsp; <br> &nbsp; <br> Jordan's teams were excellent, which really is an overlooked point. Everyone always talks about how much better the league was back then but then gives him all the credit for getting them the 'Ships. He did a lot yes, he was the MVP yes but Scottie Pippen was an all time great in is own right. A much better player than "LeBrons #2" Wade IMO. <br> &nbsp; <br> Long live Barwis, I'll be done talking NBA in this thread. <br> http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252027Thu, 17 Jul 2014 11:52:38 GMTRe:Barwis (UMWolverine5) Back to barwis, missed the episode last night but will watch it tonight. As one of the posters said earlier, series is so much built for TV and not the true nerds. I still like it, but would love more if it dove deeper into his methods and strategies. http://umgoblue.com/talk/fb.ashx?m=252024Thu, 17 Jul 2014 10:18:13 GMTRe:Barwis (WolvyMike) <blockquote class="quote"><i>Wolverine in Iowa</i><br> <br> <br> I think we can all agree that Deuce is obviously way too emotionally vested against LeBron that he can't see beyond that.
